Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course is not suited to students who have a language as their second subject!
By the end of this course, students will have a detailed overview of theoretical and practical issues surrounding Content-and-Language-Integrated-Learning (CLIL) as one form of English Medium Education. We will be looking at methodologies used in CLIL (and the challenges of integrating content and language-related foci) and will evaluate and create materials. Reference will be made to other EMI programmes at both secondary and tertiary levels of education.
More specifically, we will address the following areas:
- Language policy and official language management for CLIL
- Integration of language and content
- Analysis of EMI/CLIL classroom discourse, with specific focus on Disciplinary Language
- Evaluation and creation of CLIL materials / activities
- Assessment in CLIL
A mixture of teacher-input, flipped classroom, group and pair work and individual tasks will be used

Assessment and permitted materials


1) Online activities and in-class participation (20 points max of overall mark)
2) Presentation of a CLIL activity (plus materials and assessment suggestion). This should be on content from your "second subject" (30 points max, in pairs if possible)
3) CLIL classroom discourse analysis (50 points max): Analyse a CLIL/EMI lesson transcript Choose one to two aspects of classroom discourse as focus of your analysis. You need to include a structured description of the lesson in the main text, a clear presentation of research question and data analysis. Access to data will be provided via open data sources and the tutor’s materials. Length: 2,500-3,000 words
